I wouldn't think you have a chance.  What model Lexus does your buddy have?  I can't believe he got beat.  Is the Grand Am supercharged or something?  I still have a 91 Mustang 5.0 that has 179k on it and it would still smoke either one of my accords.

Basically, w/ the older 4 cyl. Accords...you are pretty much SOL against a v6.

it never hurts to try... unless you're road racing and risking other peoples lives then I'd say stop it....
